MOBA Monday: Orcs Must Die! Unchained & Time for TOME (Giveaway)

moba_monday_omd_unchained_halloween_tomeMOBA Monday is a weekly showcase of how to perform, eh, let’s go with adequately – we hope – in a massive online battle arena. The streaming squad features the hottest, upcoming or most interesting titles of their and the communities fancy for a few rounds of PvP shenanigans in our weekly Twitch channel staple.

Robot Entertainment put down a massive patch for its upcoming tower defense meets MOBA Orcs Must Die! Unchained. The third-person team-based shooter dealie introduced a new hero, and all-new map and a “newish map” with numerous other goodies jammed inside Patch 1.6. This definitely includes a reskin of a previous map to celebrate the “collective end-of-October-beginning-of-November holidays.” And, of course, that also brings us new vanity skins for the same exact celebration of the dead, things to die and harvest festivals et. al.

The back half of MOBA Monday will see TOME return for the thirdtime this month. The F2P MOBA from Kixeye continues to draw me in with its quick matches and deep meta system. The flip side to Robot Entertainment’s aggressive patching and largely transparent development, Kixeye has remained largely quiet since we were introduced to the game at PAX Prime 2014. Sure, there have been minor correspondences and patches, but even a major update like v7.1 to 8.0 yielded minor changes, mostly dealing with your typical balance modifications. At least these updates are coming fast and furious.

MOBA Monday will return to its famed 1:00 PM EST time slot. Hit the jump or head directly to the channel page to watch live. Don’t forget to follow for all the updates and giveaway opportunities. This is a double dip week. TOME gameplay will come complete with Diesel Orlon skin codes, so be sure to make your account now!
